“Inherent Vice, brilliantly scored by Jonny Greenwood, is an Anderson head trip, impure jazz with a reverb that can leave you dazed, confused and even annoyed. But at no time do you doubt that you are in the hands of a master.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

“Mr. Anderson has condensed the book with surgical precision, ditching certain subplots, characters and locales while retaining the novel’s sociopolitical tug, barbed asides and chokingly funny details.” – Manohla Dargis, The New York Times

“The deftness with comedy and actors are at a level that few filmmakers working today could achieve.” – Ben Kenigsberg, AV Club
